Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Considering 103 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the high quality of the products, particularly the alpaca and llama wool items, noting their softness, warmth, and beautiful craftsmanship. Many appreciate the hand-made nature of the textiles and the company's support for local artisans. The delivery service is frequently highlighted as fast and efficient, with orders arriving on schedule and well-packaged. The overall ordering process is described as clear and easy, and the customer service is commended for being responsive and helpful. However, some customers experienced discrepancies between the product photos online and the actual colors received, finding them to be darker or more muted. A few reviewers also mentioned that some blankets were thinner than expected and shed heavily. There were isolated reports of initial packaging errors, chemical smells on garments, and concerns about product composition, with some customers questioning if the material met their expectations for pure wool.

Love the blankets I purchased!

Love the blankets I purchased!! Easy to order and so many designes and products to choose from (that was actually the hard part; choosing the design and colours I liked best. Delivery quick given where they are shipped from. Highly recommend this product.

Great quality products at a great price, with extremely fast shipping.

The quality of these products are top notch. The Lama wool ponchos are rugged and will last for several lifetimes, if properly cared for. Their Alpaca ponchos are extremely soft and warm. The prices are very reasonable and the shipping is extremely fast. I've bought several ponchos already and will be buying more in the future. If you are on the fence, you can rest assured that you will get a great product at a great price, with extremely fast shipping. 👍

It arrived at a timely hour even the day before it was scheduled to be received. Inside the package was a small bag of eucalyptus leaves that complimented the scent of the poncho as well as a complimentary box of Kamm Ginger Lemonade chocolate. The poncho itself is very lightweight, however I recommend removing it when undergoing hot temperatures. It is durable, slightly stretchy, and incredibly comfortable when I am out and about.
